Young's Modulus of Single-Crystal Fullerene Nanotubes
Figure 1
A time-sequence series image and the separation like galley is forbidden. Time-sequence series of bright-field images of cantilever-beam-type loading bending of single-crystal C70 nanotube with outer diameter of 270 nm and inner diameter of 100 nm. One end of the nanotube is fixed on a gold plate. The arrow indicates the direction of loading imparted by the tip of AFM cantilever. This bending test was performed in the vacuum.
